Not even ashamed.

We have quite a few of the floating shelves from Ikea, a couple of storage units and a small side table.
Most of our light shades are also from there thinking about it.
Don't see the issue with it, none of it has degraded or damaged and still looks decent.

Ikea - its a global household bran... whats the problem.
I hate Ikea.... simply due to the fact that I cant be arsed faffing about in their shops with hordes of Ikea zombies.
We have a few ikea bits and bobs, and had a lot in our first flat.
For the price you pay, its pretty decent
We've got a bit more 'gucci' furniture in places now... but you end up stressing when folk dont give it due care and attention.... scraping stuff on it, bashing the shot out of it with hoovers etc. You'd be better off with cheaper stuff that you dont care so much about.

He is about 25 now, haven't seen him for a few years. Don't know if he still has the Sierra or not.
Edit, this is not relevant to this thread.

The 7 years bad luck myth came from Victorian times when if a maid broke a mirror it would take her 7 years on those wages to buy another.

Can you carry this thread on and change the title, Barnes? Ignore the stick as it was quite interesting following your progress.

Calm down gyppo, I haven't done anything in a week or so. Been living in it, or do you want me to photograph that?

Get a free coffee, and they have discount events. I got 10% off the wardrobe using my parents card so thought I'd get my own. Don't really need anything more but just in case may be worth having in the future.
